On March 4, 2021, California Governor Gavin Newsom issued an executive order loosening price gouging restrictions that have been active since declaring a state of emergency on March 4, 2020. Governor Newsom’s new measures cover only the price gouging of emergency supplies and medical supplies, and extends eviction limitations. The executive order provides that “ordinary market mechanisms may be sufficient to ensure Californians’ access to many necessary goods and services.” California is among the first states to begin to loosen price gouging restrictions.
